Re: Creating a F37 remix/spin LiveCD without a desktop environment

Thank you. I was not aware of nodm, so this is interesting. However, I understand that nodm will automatically start an X session at system boot. I really do not want that, except in the LiveCD.

As I mentioned in a post, I do not understand why lightdm (in my example) was not starting.


Looking at the i3 desktop kickstart file, I tried using lightdm (just to see how I fare):

 ....
 %post
 systemctl enable lightdm

 # create /etc/sysconfig/desktop (needed for installation)

 cat > /etc/sysconfig/desktop <<EOF
 PREFERRED=/usr/bin/openbox-session
 DISPLAYMANAGER=/usr/sbin/lightdm
 EOF
 ....
 %end

However my LiveCD stops wtih saying: Failed to start lightdm.service. I am not sure if there are other errors too, but is there something
else I should have done above beyond enabling lightdm above?

Thank you again!
